CygnusGal Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Nice posting and a very rational analysis. For some reason, I have a visualization in my mind as Headlong Flight being almost like a dream sequence of recalling his life before the spiritual crash of BU2B2. Kind of like after "The Wreckers" he's lying on a jagged beach, broken and battered and half-conscious, and fondly recalls his life, warts and all. Oddly enough, and on a side note, I have some trepidation about reading the novelization. I think my concern is akin to watching a music video and having it provide me with a different vision of what my mind's eye has already created.

anchorman Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I'd like to know the Watchmaker's side of the story. Where did he come from, what's his origin ? We know he's not a myth or a figment of anyone's imagination. He is portrayed as a wandering salesman peddling his goods by asking "What do you lack"?

Weakly Criminal Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 'Neil and band'? But I though Neil and Ged were Al's backup band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddyRulz Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I love the original post... it's exactly my take on the story, except for the hypothesis that "Headlong Flight" is told from the POV of some yet-to-be-introduced character whom we'll read about in the novel. I disagree there (I make the assumption it's Owen talking), but I could be wrong and the OP correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkingBig Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 Thanks for all the positive feedback, been away in NYC. Can't believe we're 8 weeks away from showtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
